Our biggest complaint about the DS Lite has been its woefully small number of LED lights. Thank goodness for modders then, because Tailor Made Toys has crafted the flashy DS Lite you see above. The kicker? It also has force feedback, which comes in two flavors: one is just normal rumble, while the...

Sony's R&amp;D guru Richard Marks made a recent appearance on the PlayStation.Blog to talk more about the PlayStation Motion Controller.
